Researchers examined pre-service teacher perceptions of their reflective practice, classroom teacher
observations of the service - learning arrangement, and how the service - learning program contributed to arts
activities at the elementary school over the project's five - year
period.
Cloud cover data from ship
observations over the North Atlantic, where measurements are denser, did not show any relationship with solar
activity over the
period 1953 - 1995, though a large discrepancy exists between ISCCP D2 data and surface marine
observations.
A main control on atmospheric CO2 appears to be the ocean surface temperature, and remains a possibility that a significant part of the overall increase of atmospheric CO2 since at least 1958 (start of Mauna Loa
observations) simply relflects the gradual warming of the oceans as a result of the prolonged
period of high solar
activity since 1920 (Solanki et al., 2004).
This interesting
observation has the potential to identify the occurrence of extended low solar
activity periods.
Some scientists question the reliability of the
observations, whereas others, who accept them as reliable, suggest that the correlation may be caused by other physical phenomena with decadal
periods or by a response to volcanic
activity or El Niño.
Earlier models were developed based on
observations corresponding to the
period of high levels of solar
activity, the so - called Modern Grand maximum of solar
activity (Solanki et al. 2004).
My comments can be assessed by reference to the actual
observations of the real world since 1961 (mentioned above) which is when the Earth embarked on one of the highest
periods of solar
activity in the 400 year historical record.
Taking into account the problems of the reconstruction of the TSI and SSI during the recent
period of satellite
observations and combining it with the fact that the solar dynamo, which is believed to drive all
activity manifestations, is still not fully understood (Charbonneau 2010), one recognizes the difficulty of reconstructing the TSI and SSI into the past, when no direct measurements were available.
Direct
observations of the sunspots since 1610 reveal an irregular
activity cycle with an average
period of about 11 years, which is modulated on longer timescales.
In assessing past trends, one must distinguish between two distinct time intervals: 1) the
period of historical
observations (mainly after 1850), and 2) the earlier
period for which TC
activity can only be reconstructed using proxy data.
Monitor students on playgrounds, in classrooms, hallways, restrooms, and cafeteria during recess and lunch
periods, and in bus loading areas before and after school, to assist students in their
activities, ensure proper behavior, and
observation of safety rules.
